[R-sig-Geo] Zooming into a specific area

[Paul Hiemstra]

Hmmm,

Could you provide a reproducible example to illustrate your problem with 
xlim and ylim. This works for me:

library(sp)
data(meuse)
coordinates(meuse) = ~x+y
spplot(meuse, "dist",
    xlim = c(179000, 180000),
    ylim = c(330000, 331000))

cheers,
Paul
